Kepler-737 is an M-Type main-sequence red dwarf located 671 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. It was discovered by HARPS using the transit method and announced on May 10, 2016.[5] To the naked eye, it appears a single faint star of its magnitude.[4]

Physical properties

General Properties

Kepler-737 is around half the size of the Sun, with a mass of 0.51 solar masses and a radius of 0.48 solar radii.[1] It's spectral class is M0V, its temperature is about 3,813 Kelvin, with a brightness of 0.045 solar luminosity.[2] Scientists proclaimed the different stellar ages of the star because of celestial bodies, one of KOI Table claimed a star to be 14 billion years old. Its age can range from 3.8 to 14.6 billion years old. [2]

As for the logarithm of the relative abundance of Iron and Hydrogen, its Metallicity [Fe/H] is -0.24+0.087
−0.081
dex, containing Iron and Hydrogen on its core, significantly lower than the Sun's. Its density is rough ~5.239±0.265 g/cm3.[2] Its gravity is weaker than the Sun, have at least 4.722±0.008 cgs with a base-10 logarithm (log g). Its stellar density is about ~5.239±0.265 g/cm³ Solar Density, while the sun has about 1.41 g/cm³ solar density[2]

Astrometry and Characteristics

SIMBAD data indicate that its proper motion is 20.094 mas/yr for Right ascension, -19.889 mas/yr for Declination, its parallax is 4.859 mas[4]. There are many confirmed apparent magnitudes pending on NASA headquarters, these apparent magnitudes employed to measure the brightness of a star Kepler-737 with their filter names. Its distance is alternatively 205.8 ± 0.8 pc

An transiting planet orbing a star Kepler-737

Kepler-737b[5] was discovered and suspected since May 18, 2016, for orbiting in the habitable zone but not likely to be inhabitable because Kepler-737b is tidally locked.[6] [7][8] Kepler-737b may instead have atmospheric circulation that would distribute the heat around the planet, potentially making a large portion of it habitable, although given its stellar flux the most likely scenario is that the planet's surface is too hot to be habitable. Water on Kepler-737b's surface could also distribute heat.

On the note of the Exoplanet Archive, Kepler-737b was dedicated that orbital period, transit mid-point, transit duration, Rp/Rs, and their errors are taken from DR24 KOI table[2]
